ummmmmm, yeah in the form of mice and rats and possibly chicks. Everything is meat.

I'm going to assume you are asking about "meat" as in beef or chicken or other "human" food. I would be a little surprised if you could entice a ball into taking a piece of meat because they are fairly picky feeders and the scent given off from meat probably would not trigger a feeding response.
Some of the larger less fussy constrictors will take things like turkey legs.They cannot be fed this way as a regular diet though because they require the prey's organs as part of their nutrition.

Of course they can.
More info :)
If you wanna know what you can feed your python read this article below :)
Start your hatchling (about 15" in length) off with a single pre-killed one week to 10-day old "fuzzy" mouse. A smaller sized hatchling may require a smaller mouse; try a pre-killed 5-day old. Older ball pythons may be fed larger pre-killed mice or pinkie rats. If you have not had any experience force feeding a snake, you may not want to try it yourself until you have seen someone do it. Force feeding, whether of a mouse or with a formula inserted by catheter and syringe, is very stressful for the snake (and it isn't much fun for the owner!). If your new ball has gone several months without eating and is beginning to noticeably lose weight, take it to a reptile vet or contact your local herpetology society and ask to speak to someone who is knowledgeable about ball pythons and feeding problems.

Good luck to U :)

Well, they do, if you consider rodents as meat.
